Medium dependence for rapid detection of thermonuclease activity in blood culture broths.
H Faruki and
P Murray
ABSTRACT
The thermonuclease test for rapid identification of Staphylococcus aureus in blood cultures was evaluated by using 16 different blood culture media and 4 DNase agar media. The reliability of this test was profoundly medium dependent, and the source of the DNase agar was particularly important.
